Dale gave us permission to read one of his letters to his sister in EbzB’s performance of War Bonds <\/i>on October 27, 2019 for the Zanesville Concert Association in Zanesville, Ohio.  Dale was a riot\u2013\u2013 laughing, joking, even dancing a little!  The show stopped when his letter was read from the stage, as the audience of 800 patrons gave him a well-deserved standing ovation.  After the performance, a USO canteen gala allowed performers, musicians and audience members to break bread, dance and reminisce about their own stories from the time. <\/p>\n

The following morning, a student matinee of War Bonds was performed for over 600 elementary students .  Their tickets were paid for by the previous day’s audience.  The greatest generation literally paid it forward so that these students might have a better experience in life.  A five-piece band, led by Music Director Julie Florin brought the music to life for tomorrow’s leaders.  The post-show question and answer period with the students allowed for investigation of the history and context of a world at war in the 1940’s.<\/p>\n
